Description for Ultracold Atoms in Optical Lattices: Simulating quantum many-body systems
Paperback. This book explores the physics of atoms frozen to ultralow temperatures and trapped in periodic light structures. It introduces the reader to the spectacular progress achieved on the field of ultracold gases and describes present and future challenges in condensed matter physics, high energy physics, and quantum computation. Num Pages: 496 pages, 104 line, 29 half-tone figures. BIC Classification: PHFC; PHJ; PHM; PHQ. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 246 x 171. .
Quantum computers, though not yet available on the market, will revolutionize the future of information processing. Quantum computers for special purposes like quantum simulators are already within reach. The physics of ultracold atoms, ions and molecules offer unprecedented possibilities of control of quantum many body systems and novel possibilities of applications to quantum information processing and quantum metrology. Particularly fascinating is the possibility of using ultracold atoms in lattices to simulate condensed matter or even high energy physics. This book provides a complete and comprehensive overview of ultracold lattice gases as quantum simulators. It opens up an interdisciplinary ... Read more
